I had the opportunity to do Ashley's makeup for her wedding a few weeks ago. These amazing shots were taken by Stephanie Williams, and as you can see, the bride has plenty of natural beauty:

Ashley, her mother, and bridesmaids were all so fun to work with that day. You could tell there was a lot of history with this group of girls, they had tons to laugh about the whole time they were getting ready together.

They look so glamorous here:

More shots of the wedding, but mostly of the bride looking pretty:

The Look: Ashley doesn't normally wear a lot of makeup, so she didn't want to wear a lot on her wedding day, and since she has perfect skin, it wasn't hard to get away with less makeup. She has amazing eyes, so of course we wanted to play those up, so we used a combination of vanilla, shell pink and soft brown eye shadows to add definition to her lids. We lined and shaped the rims of her eyes with black gel eyeliner, applied with a brush and added voluminous false lashes to really give her eyes that extra "wow" factor. We used a very pink blush to highlight those striking cheekbones and finished the look with a mauve lip liner and lipgloss.

We had such a great time working with Ashley and all her friends, thank you for letting us be a part of your beautiful day!
